Using nanoparticles to discern chirality
A team of scientists has developed a new, simpler way to discern molecular handedness, known as chirality, using gold-and-silver cubic nanoparticles.
EPFL researchers control optical signal tranmission
Scientists have discovered how optical signal transmission can be controlled, which could lead to integration of plasmonics with electronic circuits.
Mark Allen is first scientific director of Singh Center for Nanotechnology
Mark G. Allen has been named the inaugural scientific director of the University of Pennsylvania’s Krishna P. Singh Center for Nanotechnology.
Plasmonic transducer can measure motion on the nanoscale
Researchers confine plasmons in a resonant cavity only 20 nanometers wide to precisely measure mechanical motion smaller than the size of an atom.
